These solve different problems. Dover is a recruiting software platform; Beacon Devs is a search firm. Here's the real distinction, factually, so you can pick the right fit.
Book a callAn end-to-end recruiting software platform used by 2,000+ companies, combining a marketplace of fractional tech recruiters, a free ATS, and AI tools for sourcing, candidate scoring, and interview scheduling. Self-serve and tech-enabled, built for teams that want to run their own recruiting process with software and fractional support, not a firm that runs the search for you.
A search firm, not a platform. We run the entire search personally, founder-led, with direct technical evaluation on every candidate and uncontrolled reference checks. Engineering only, from IC through VP, with documented healthcare AI and regulated-data search experience.
Dover is the right tool if you want to own your recruiting process with software and fractional support behind it. We're the right fit if you want someone to fully own the search and hand you a shortlist, not a platform to run yourself.
David runs every Beacon search personally, focused on permanent engineering leadership and specialist hires.
